Dear Honorable Judge,
We write to you today, parents of addiction's cruelty to our son.
It was never our intention to raise our child to be enslaved to drugs.
A brain blinding disease as defined per the American Medical Association.
We ask today that you make a powerful decision in our son's life.
Our tears are many, and we apologize for this disease controlling
our son, and the disgrace of his criminal actions.
He also cries and weeps, suffering with the memories and pain
his actions and addiction has caused.
Abstinence in prison has revealed through statistics that it is "not" the
cure for this disease. This young man before you could recover with
the tools and accountability provided in the Two Year program of
recovery. He HAS desperately learned his addiction, is NOT a mere
willpower action. He must learn and work hard to use the tools of
recovery. He will not be taught these in prison, we do not want the
repeating of this disease.
I ask that you use your firm voice to let him hear that you will be
receiving reports on him each week and month from his counselors.
AND IF...you receive an indication that he is not fully cooperating,
then prison bars is what will be his consequences. That he is
being given a Life changing opportunity to clean up his diseased
thinking and learn new tools to rebuild his life. He will be empowered
by your every word.
Please make the difference to save our son's life today.
Respectfully,
A mothers love and hope.
Honorable mention

I love the penning and the outlining and the understanding of the consequences that he will face and the trials he will endure as a result of drug use. Best to you in the contest, blessings always~ Trisha
